Analysis of wear resistent weld materials in laboratory conditions

Abstract

The aim of the study was the evaluation of the suitability of using filler surfacing materials in abrasion resistant layers according to their material and tribology features. Laboratory analysis of the selected materials consisted of the tests of hardness, microstructure and wear resistance determination. The abrasive wear resistance was defined according to the standard STN 01 5084. On the basis of the results obtained, we can state that using the hard-facing for the background is tenable for the purpose of wear amount decrement where the abrasive wear prevails.
